The warm sun shines. Fips is a little fox. His coat is orange. His nose is black and shiny. Taps is a young bear. His big paws are soft. Fips is fast. Taps is strong.

They run happily into the forest. The grass tickles their paws. A blue butterfly flutters by. Flap, flap, flap. It lands on a bright yellow flower. Fips follows it curiously. Taps follows too.

A thick branch lies across their path, like a little bridge. Fips hops nimbly over it. Hop, hop. Taps climbs carefully over it. Tap, tap, tap.

A big puddle glitters in the sun. Splish, splash. Fips jumps in with a happy cheer. Taps jumps too. Both laugh loudly. Water splashes high into the air.

A little beetle lies helplessly on its back. Fips quickly gets a leaf. He taps it very gently. Tap, tap, tap. The beetle slowly turns over. It crawls quickly away. Fips waves to it. Taps waves too.

Suddenly, it smells sweet. Bright red berries hang low on a leafy bush. The berries are plump and round. Mmm, how good they smell! Taps picks a berry. Fips picks one too. They sit on a warm stone. They snack on the sweet berries slowly. Munch, munch.

The sun tickles their noses. Fips laughs happily. Taps laughs loudly along. Fips and Taps are the best of friends. What a beautiful day!
